CB-10510: Add an optional timeout to emu start script
The `emulator.js` script waits forever for the emulator to boot. If the
emulator gets stuck, it will never terminate. The reason for adding this
timeout is that the Android emulator on Windows occasionally hangs while
booting up. This causes problems in our CI, where the run step would go on
forever until buildbot eventually cut it off (see
[here](https://ci.apache.org/builders/cordova-android-win/builds/1588/steps/running-tests/logs/stdio)
for an example run). I have an upcoming PR for cordova-medic that switches
from using `cordova run` to start the emulator to requiring this script
directly so that we can add retry logic for the emulator start. I don't think
it really makes sense to expose the timeout option in the CLI itself, so this
PR does not alter the CLI's behavior at all (it will still hang). I'm not sure
if we should add in a default timeout or not.
